Perimenopausal?

08/02/03

Perimenopause
Perimenopause is the phase before menopause actually takes place, when ovarian hormone production is declining and fluctuating, causing a host of symptoms, such as changing menstrual periods, intermittent sleep, some hot flashes, hair loss and a decline in libido.

Some clinicians maintain that peri-menopause can last for as long as 5 to 15 years, and refer to peri-menopause as that period which is a 3 to 4 year span just before menopause. Some women actually experience more symptoms during peri-menopause than after menopause. But, because this often happens at an age between 35 and 45, many women's symptoms are overlooked or ignored by their healthcare providers. And many women are in denial about peri-menopause and attribute beginning hot flashes and low libido to the room temperature or their lifestyle.

Most premenopausal women experience changes primarily in their menstrual cycle. When estrogen levels begin to drop, the follicular phase of the cycle may be shortened, and this can shorten the total cycle from 28–30 days to 24–26 days, resulting in more frequent periods.

On the other hand, some women begin having longer cycles because they are not ovulating as frequently. These changes can be quite different on an individual basis.

Additionally, this declining/fluctuating estrogen level can produce a host of disturbing symptoms: hot flashes, increasing vaginal dryness, sleep problems, mood swings, breast tenderness and many other complications.

Many clinicians believe this is a perfect time to begin therapy with MACA750™ because then this herb does not create an excess of hormones, but simply allows the body to replace its failing internal supply.

A small percentage of women experience significant, dramatic symptoms that, when left untreated, ultimately lead to surgical intervention. Many women find at this time too many physicians strongly urging surgery and failing to provide information about the alternatives to, and consequences of, hysterectomy.

It is important to remember that these problems associated with declining hormones are not necessary. Hot flashes, night sweats, fatigue and a nonexistent libido are signs that your hormonal system is literally starving and that years of repeated stress due to diet and mismanaged lifestyle are the culprits.

Hot Flashes, etc. can be eliminated - and the earlier the better. Even women with PMS can begin to address these issues before they reach a hormonal crisis such as perimenopause or menopause.

MACA750™ fuels your hormonal system naturally. The herb itself is not a hormone. Studies show that this herb balances and normalizes hormone production.
